Hi guys been struggling with a few things on my mount is this supposed to have movement?

That is the spring loaded worm assembly, which moves back and fourth with the clutch lever, so are you saying there is movement in the assembly when the worm is engaged or disengaged…?

If it’s moving when engaged then you need to adjust the worm engagement, it’s it moving when disengaged I don’t thing this is an issue…

It's engaged so I guess it needs adjusting!

Well that was easy! Once I found the sweetspot anyway! 

Thanks for your help @Stuart1971

No problem, 

If it was on the RA axis then sits not really a problem as that axis never changes directions, it’s the DEC that needs to be good, usually loosen the top screw, and tighten the other all the way in, then back off 1/4 turn, is normally all that’s needed….👍🏻
